RichFaces tears down server on Unix without X-server running ------------------------------------------------------------ Key: RF-9813 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/browse/RF-9813 Project: RichFaces Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public (Everyone can see) Affects Versions: 4.0.0.Milestone3 Environment: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 5) Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_22-b04) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 17.1-b03, mixed mode) apache-tomcat-7.0.4 RichFaces 4.0.0.20101004-M3 Mojarra JSF 2.0.3-FCS Reporter: Karl Mueller Priority: Critical Running an application using RichFaces 4 M3 under RHEL with no X-server running causes the server to crash. Apparently RichFaces tries to connect to the X-server on container startup and then terminates when there is no X-Server present : excerpt from catalina.out: INFO: Creating LRUMap cache instance using parameters: {org.richfaces.skin=plain, javax.faces.PROJECT_STAGE=Development, org.richfaces.enableControlSkinningClasses=true, org.richfaces.enableControlSkinning=false} 12.11.2010 09:57:26 org.richfaces.cache.lru.LRUMapCacheFactory createCache INFO: Creating LRUMap cache instance of 512 items capacity 12.11.2010 09:57:26 org.richfaces.application.InitializationListener onStart INFO: RichFaces Core Implementation by JBoss, a division of Red Hat, Inc., version v.4.0.0.20101004-M3 SVN r.19446 X connection to localhost:11.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown). Attempts to start other x applications, e.g. xclock fail with the same error msg "X connection to localhost:10.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown)." I am connect to the Unix machine via Putty with X11 forwarding enabled. When I start an X-Server on my local Windows machine the problem does not occur and the application is running smooth. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: https://jira.jboss.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
